What impressed you positively?

Most everyone seemed very nice, and the students we talked with were very helpful. The interview day is designed to be very informative. The equipment seems up to date even if the building is old.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The location. The surrounding area is not very nice. The campus is great, but the building of the college of dental medicine is old. However, they are building a new state-of-the-art facility for it that should open in 2007, I think.
